These beautiful creatures have multiple color variations: gold, amber, sable, classic. But one thing they all have in common: their coats shimmer like sun-kissed bronze in daylight!
Ever heard of a horse that magically changes appearances? As the seasons change, so do roans! Their coats darken in winter and lighten in summer. You could say that they are a two-in-one horse.
If you’re looking for a horse out of a fantasy novel, here it is. This magical horse boasts their rich, chocolatey, or black coats with a crown of silver-blond manes and tails! If that doesn’t sound like a combination made by Tolkien, then I don’t know what does.
These beauties truly live up to their name. They are nearly pure white or cream-colored with pale blue eyes and a soft peachy undertone. Don’t they look like a nice, warm cup of latte?
This pattern gene is also called the leopard complex. Horses with this pattern show off their eye-catching spots that give them a unique appearance. They can vary widely in shape: from tiny freckles to huge patches!
When I picture a horse, this is what I imagine: a beautiful golden coat with dorsal stripes and leg bars that give them a timeless look. And this is exactly what dunalinos are known for!
Don’t worry, I didn’t forget the female version of this horse, called ‘grulla’! If you are looking for a more gothic vibe for a horse, consider this: a smoky or bluish-gray coat with black manes, tails, and leg points.
